Lisa Willis was the number 5 pick in the 2006 WNBA draft, holds records at UCLA and played for Team USA but her accomplishments off the floor are far more impressive.

She also travels the world speaking to major corporations on leadership and works tirelessly to help both kids and adults through non-profit organizations. Lisa was kind enough to spend time with us discussing leadership and how we can help ourselves get centered and focus on the important things in life.
